Chapter 564

A Beauty With Multiple Masks

Carter shrugged. “Fine. But trust me, you’re gonna screw up should you continue to act like this. People
who fall deeply in love with someone are often the ones who get hurt the most.”

Vinson gave Carter the cold shoulder. He then returned to the ward and talked to the elderly woman,
“We’re trying our best to rescue your son and find out the truth. Don’t worry, we’ll take full responsibility, if
it’s our shop that triggered your son’s illness, and compensate him accordingly.”

Upon seeing how sincere Vinson was, the elderly woman’s frown gradually disappeared.

She coughed and responded, “I just want my son to be safe. I’ll not pursue the matter as long as he’s
healthy.”

Her elder son immediately interrupted her and expressed his dismay. “How can you say that, Mom? It’s
all their fault, to begin with!”

“Enough!” She knitted her brows. “Can’t you tell that they felt sorry for the mishap? We don’t need any
compensation from them. We just want your brother to be safe!”

The doctor, who was about to leave, overheard their conversation. He paused for a moment, turned
around, and said to her. “I’m afraid he has a more severe health issue.”

A line formed between the woman’s brows. “What do you mean?”

Vinson, too, turned his attention to the doctor.

The doctor explained, “I suppose you’re not aware of his health condition. Your son has hemophilia.
Even if he manages to leave the hospital this time, he will still be hospitalized because of this disorder.”



“Hemophilia? How did he contract this disease? My son’s body has always been weak, but… could it be
a misdiagnosis?”

The doctor shook his head. “We’ve carried out a thorough checkup on him. We’ve also checked his
medical record and realized he had come to the hospital for treatment before this. Your son knew he was
sick all along.”

The woman looked at him in disbelief and asked her elder son in a trembling voice, “Do you know about
this?”

Words stuck in his throat, as he did not know how to reply to her. The woman was appalled at his
reaction. “So you knew all along? How could you hide this from me?”

“We have no choice but to keep this away from you, Mom. You have a heart condition, and we can’t
agitate you further.” The son sighed.

A vortex of anger swirled inside her. “You shouldn’t have hidden it from me. You shouldn’t have done
that!”

Vinson and Carter then walked the doctor out of the ward and asked, “What else did Arielle say besides
the thing she wanted?”

The doctor shook his head. “She didn’t say anything. She asked us to retrieve the patient’s blood serum
and said she would know the cause once the result is out.”

Vinson nodded. “Got it. We just have to trust her judgment and give her all the assistance she needs.”

“All right, Mr. Nightshire.” The doctor nodded and left.

Carter looked worried. “It’s going to be difficult to help this man recover since he has hemophilia.”



Yet, Vinson was pleased that this had cleared one of his doubts. “This explains why he was the only
customer in danger. But right now, we still do not know if someone intentionally used him to take us
down.”

Carter gritted his teeth. “That person must be a psychopath with no conscience! How could he put a
man’s life at risk just to get back at you? He’s no different from the man who tried to hunt us down!”

Vinson, on the other hand, was calm as usual.

Instead of panicking, he decided to wait patiently for Arielle’s update.

The truth would come to light when he regains his consciousness,
